Hometown
[edit]I'm not quite sure Claudio's hometown in Switzerland is Schaffhausen, I've read Luzern on some websites. If somebody can help... By the way why not write "Swizterland" after the hometown??? That's the same thing as US States, when a wrestler isn't American he's always billed with his country.
Claudio's name
[edit]So, Claudio Castagnoli is his real name? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Djm912 (talk • contribs)
- Is there any reason to think it isn't? Tromboneguy0186 11:54, 14 September 2006 (UTC)
- A lot of wrestling names are stage names, its a legit question. 65.30.42.124 05:30, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
True, but is there any particular reason to think that of this name? Yes, plenty of ring names sound like real names (Christopher Daniels, Jimmy Jacobs, Alex Shelley, Roderick Strong, Shawn Michaels, Nigel McGuinness, and Eric Young all come to mind) but unless there's a reason to definitely think otherwise it's a bit silly to think this or any ostensibly real name isn't one. Nosleep1234 16:39, 1 June 2007 (UTC)
Claudio's age
[edit]This article and OWW both state that his birthday is December 27, 1974, making him 32. However, his profile on Cagematch.net says his birthday is December 27, 1980, making him 26. Castagnoli's My Space says he is 26 years old. Nenog 23:11, 11 September 2007 (UTC)
- Great point. It would be nice to get clarification as to what his age is. I don't see his age listed in the Quick Facts section. Rmacdon627 (talk) 02:21, 28 April 2024 (UTC)

Claudio Castagnoli → Antonio Cesaro – Castagnoli has been performing as "Antonio Cesaro" for over 18 months now. He has appeared on television globally under this ring name, whereas his performances as "Claudio Castagnoli" were overwhelmingly untelevised. McPhail (talk) 19:23, 8 June 2013 (UTC)
- Support as nominator. McPhail (talk) 19:25, 8 June 2013 (UTC)
- Support per nom. The exposure he has gotten in his 18 months with WWE has made Cesaro his WP:COMMONNAME.LM2000 (talk) 23:02, 8 June 2013 (UTC)
- Support - also, let's not forget, he featured on television screens worldwide as the WWE United States Champion for about seven to eight months. Starship.paint (talk) 03:28, 9 June 2013 (UTC)
- Support - as above. Duffs101 (talk) 09:33, 9 June 2013 (UTC)
- Support; seems to be the more common name now. bobrayner (talk) 16:47, 9 June 2013 (UTC)

New Signature Move
[edit]Starting July 2013, debuted a swinging rear chinlock. Referee treats it as a possible submission, but seems to be more of a set-up for the Neutralizer. 218.212.229.196 (talk) 16:43, 16 July 2013 (UTC)
Vandalism
[edit]There is extensive vandalism in this article that has yet to be addressed. The section headings in every section from Section 1.4.2 onward contains references to female wrestling achievements, and other things that are obviously not applicable to the subject of the article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.162.201.229 (talk) 02:46, 6 August 2013 (UTC)

Potential name tweak
[edit]Just a heads up, his WWE Bio and the Elimination Chamber preview on WWE.com now list him as just "Cesaro", has this been referred to on live TV yet? Duffs101 (talk) 00:07, 12 February 2014 (UTC)
- Not on the last Raw, but probably on this week's SmackDown that was taped but not aired yet. starship.paint (talk | ctrb) 11:13, 12 February 2014 (UTC)
Antonio Cescaro has offically changed his ring name to Cescaro. Just a little note, move the page if you want Moel 5.0 (talk) 04:41, 17 February 2014 (UTC)
- Yes, this is clearly covered in the article. However, there is no way the article will be moved anytime soon. See WP:COMMONNAME, he has been known worldwide under the full name for years, and has been under the new name for less than a week. STATic message me! 04:46, 17 February 2014 (UTC)

Finishing moves As (Antonio) Cesaro Neutralizer (NXT / WWE) / Gotch Style Neutralizer (FCW) (Cradle belly-to-back inverted mat slam)[5][171][172] Very European Uppercut (FCW) / Super Uppercut (WWE)[173] (Pop-up European uppercut,[171] sometimes as a counter to a diving opponent)[174] – used as a signature move in WWE Bridging German Suplex "Cesaro used it like 3-4 times, maybe it's not that much but I think it will be his regular finisher.

Antonio Cesaro → Cesaro (wrestler) – Arguably his common name now. He spent two years as "Antonio Cesaro" but has received peak exposure by just his last name (i.e., his role with Paul Heyman). It's time to make the move. GeicoHen (talk) 22:01, 21 September 2014 (UTC)
- Oppose Cesaro is in name, the reference is from name Antonio Cesaro, its a branding nonsense for an actor called Claudio Castagnoli. Gregkaye ✍♪ 04:16, 22 September 2014 (UTC)
- Oppose It's a toss up as to which is the more popular name, but at least Antonio Cesaro is a natural disambiguator.LM2000 (talk) 00:19, 23 September 2014 (UTC)
- Oppose - I think it's inaccurate to say that he received the peak exposure with Heyman. He certainly did not have much success with Heyman. A natural disambiguation exists anyway. With a picture, there should be no cause for confusion. Cesaro (wrestler) can stay as a redirect. starship.paint ~ regal 02:39, 23 September 2014 (UTC)

name change
[edit]why is his name still antonio cesaro he has been Cesaro for almost a year — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2605:E000:ACC2:500:2881:9A9F:1334:BEF7 (talk) 04:29, 15 December 2014 (UTC)
- Can we please update Cesaro's name from 'Antonio Cesaro' to 'Cesaro' as that's his name now? --MasonWikia (talk) 22:46, 20 June 2015 (UTC)
- Antonio Cesaro is WP:NATDAB which is why it is kept. Just like Alexander Rusev. Ranze (talk) 00:18, 10 July 2015 (UTC)
Finishing maneuver
[edit]Neutralizer (NXT/WWE) / Gotch Style Neutralizer (FCW) (Cradle belly-to-back inverted mat slam, with theatrics) – 2012-2014; used rarely thereafter
Because he has been in a tag team for almost all of 2015, where most of the matches were won by Kidd or by a sequence of other moves. He used the Neutralizer as a finisher against Cena in his one high-profile match of the year showing that it is still considered his finishing move. Though technically that may be "rarely used," it does not take context into account. It also does not offer up another finishing maneuver that he is using in place of the Neutralizer. As it stands, this page lists no current finisher, and honestly I believe it's too little a spans of time to deem it "rarely used." Sherick (talk) 02:55, 1 July 2015 (UTC)
Spinning springboard
[edit]During the 6 July 2015 Raw, the announcers called the move a "springboard uppercut" and I added it, but it got reverted. Possibly because it didn't deserve to be under 'finishers' ? I guess his normal pop-up uppercut was finisher in NXT but demoted to signature in main roster?
"spinning springboard European variation" is the term used by WWE.com for the move though: http://www.wwe.com/shows/raw/2015-07-06/wwe-raw-results-27609511/page-10
Under "Multiple European uppercut variations" we do have "springboard" but not "spinning springboard" so I would like to add it, using this recent match as a reference.
@Darkwind: Since the article is currently locked to administrators I would like to appeal to admins oversighting the article to add this newest variation. The spin looked super-cool and more powerful than a basic non-spinning springboard. Ranze (talk) 00:17, 10 July 2015 (UTC)
- You'll need to:
- Gain consensus for this change, which in a case like this largely means having other editors interested in this article to chime in and comment about your suggestion; and,
- Once you have a consensus, use the {{edit protected}} template to request an admin to make the change. When you use that template, you need to provide the exact wikitext you want inserted into the article, and where it should be put.
- —Darkwind (talk) 02:36, 10 July 2015 (UTC)
I support this addition, especially considering the WWE website referenced it as well. Sherick (talk) 07:18, 13 July 2015 (UTC)
Cesaro section
[edit]The article has a heading for Cesaro section but the extensive text under it has no reference to what CS is and how it came about. Needs adding or the heading should be edited. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 198.147.19.2 (talk) 17:20, 14 January 2016 (UTC)

Antonio Cesaro → Cesaro (wrestler) – Like Big E and Rusev, both recently moved, the fictional first name here hasn't been used in years, was only used briefly, and is too obscure to act as WP:NATDAB. Dropping it is overdue. oknazevad (talk) 01:21, 16 November 2016 (UTC)

Evaluation of the article
[edit]1. I believe that everything in the article is relevant to the topic because it highlights the major phases of Cesaro's career as a wrestler, which he is well known for. I appreciated having around one image for every sub-section to provide more information and insight about his career. 2. I am concerned about the amount of out of date information. Editors may be missing opportunities to update the info every time Cesaro wrestles. However, I think that we can keep the current amount of information since it covers a significant stretch of time in Cesaro's career. Overall, I like the amount of information on this article and the way it is organized. --IMZ Editor (talk) 03:59, 30 January 2017 (UTC)

Requested move 23 April 2019
[edit]- The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
The result of the move request was: Not moved. A strong consensus would be required for the wrestler to be identified as the primary topic, and there is no evidence for such a consensus here. — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 11:18, 3 May 2019 (UTC)

- Cesaro equation not commonly referred to as "Cesaro" and hatnote to the town would be a fine compromise. This page sees 100x the views that the town does. StaticVapor message me! 07:05, 24 April 2019 (UTC)
- STATicVapor can you tell us the second criteria of Primary Topic In ictu oculi (talk) 15:01, 24 April 2019 (UTC)
- Google books "Cesaro" "wrestling" turns up plenty of results too. Based on the article for the town, it is hardly significant anyways in the first place. People coming to Wikipedia are clearly looking for this person, rather than any of the other options. StaticVapor message me! 18:44, 24 April 2019 (UTC)

- Support It is clearly the primary topic of anything spelled Cesaro. The pages In ictu oculi mentions are not the same spelling, so any confusion can easily be fixed with a hatnote. - Galatz גאליץשיחה Talk 14:02, 23 April 2019 (UTC)

- Support per WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. The minor historical significance of the obscure commune (not even a town), which is negligible, is totally dwarfed by the much higher likelihood of the wrestler to be sought - just look at the page views! --В²C ☎ 17:14, 1 May 2019 (UTC)
- Support per WP:SMALLDETAILS and В²C. Crouch, Swale (talk) 17:23, 1 May 2019 (UTC)
- Oppose. The Italian mathematician has more long-term significance than the wrestler and is appears without the diacritic just often enough that I don't think WP:SMALLDETAILS is going to cut it. SMALLDETAILS is generally used to justify a comparatively obscure or specialized topic (e.g. Airplane!) taking over a title on the basis of its unusual orthography, and should not be used on the simplest variant of a term as that is what people are likely to be typing into the search bar; English speakers are very unlikely to search with diacritics. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 04:00, 3 May 2019 (UTC)

Cesaro (wrestler) → Claudio Castagnoli – It's his real name, the name he has used everywhere except WWE, and we can't be married to the WWE name forever.

Support - Claudio Castagnoli had a long and distinguished wrestling career using his real name prior to his tenure with WWE. He is now using his real name again. Fans knew who 'Claudio Castagnoli' was prior to his tenure in WWE, and they still know who he is now. To claim otherwise would be a disingenious argument. I would also argue to not acknowledge the name change would also be to dismiss and disrespect the wishes of Claudio Castagnoli himself.
Furthermore, WWE is not the only professional wrestling promotion, nor is it the only prominent professional wrestling promotion. In fact, much like WWE, AEW also has international TV deals in place and is televised in multiple countries around the world. In addition, AEW also has working relationships with non-American wrestling promotions too. To claim wrestlers are best-known by their trademarked WWE names would be a false argument. You all know who I'm referring to if I say Miro, for example. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.13.213.48 (talk) 12:06, 3 July 2022 (UTC)
- The wrestler had a long and distinguished career as Claudio before WWE, but it doesn't avoided the fact that the article was renamed for yars under the argument "it's not the current name". Yes, AEW is a very big promotion, but he worked for 11 years in WWE. It's very probable the real name would become the new name, but not the very next day. Several sources includes the Cesaro name today. What happens if he retires? If he changes his name again? Or even if he dies? Namechange again? (BTW, based on global audience and PPVs attendeance like WrestleMania or the Arabia events, near 100.000 fans, it's pretty sure to say WWE is the biggest promotion in the world, supported by sources) --HHH Pedrigree (talk) 12:28, 3 July 2022 (UTC)
What happens if he retires? If he changes his name again? Or even if he dies? Namechange again?
- Yes, if a hypothetical (although unlikely) name change was required again in future, that would be fine, because Wikipedia is a dynamic website that can adapt to changes as they occur. So that line of argument doesn't carry water. CeltBrowne (talk) 13:24, 10 July 2022 (UTC)
- Wrestlers change their names quite often. Shaun Ricker had 3 names in 2 years (Eli Drake, LA Knight and now, Max Dupri). After Brodie Lee passed away, admin Lee Vilanski asked if Brodie Lee is the common name since he spent more time in WWE. Wikipedia adapt to changes, but there is no reason to change with every new name a wrestler has. --HHH Pedrigree (talk) 13:46, 10 July 2022 (UTC)
- We aren't here to mark out on which is the biggest wrestling promotion though.For whatever reason, you are seemingly intent on everyone who has ever worked for WWE always being known by their trademarked WWE name on Wikipedia.
- The simple fact is Castagnoli was very well-known by his real name before working for WWE, he no longer works for WWE, and is now using his real name professionally again.
- Changing his name on Wikipedia is more than warranted then. 92.13.213.48 (talk) 11:55, 14 July 2022 (UTC)
- WWE is the biggest promotion in the world, no dout about it. So, it's logical that the name they used in WWE is gonna be the common name for the average Wikipedia reader, a no-wrestling fan. There is no point to change the name just the day after or a name a wrestler uses in minor promotions, a name that a no-wrestling fan doesn't know. Also, I have a lot of expereince with wrestlers changing their name and, next month, a new name appears. --HHH Pedrigree (talk) 13:11, 14 July 2022 (UTC)
- Let's not make this as 'Who's a bigger wrestling fan, and for how long' contest, eh? No one wins in that scenario.
- As I've been watching professional wrestling for over 30 years, I can confirm that, yes, that does happen at times, often in NXT where they're trying to find the right character fit for a performer. Tyler Breeze would be a notable example. Other than Kevin Thorn/Moredecai and Alex Wright/Berlyn, rare that the thing you claim - wrestler changes his nasme and then again within a month - happens on the main roster though.
- Also, we're here to debate the name change, not throw shade. Implicitly referring to AEW as a 'minor promotion' is uncalled for.
- I and multiple other people support the name change, and all of us have given fair and reasonable arguments for why it should happen, citing examples such as Bryan Danielson and Matt Cardona in support. In fact. the number of people supporting the name change is twince the amount opposing it. 92.13.203.124 (talk) 12:20, 31 July 2022 (UTC)

- Weak support, on the basis that (a) Claudio Castagnoli is his real name (b) he had an 11 year career under this name before joining WWE (c) he was also known as "Antonio Cesaro" for several years in WWE. McPhail (talk) 09:33, 5 July 2022 (UTC)
- Support WP:NAMECHANGES It's been a month now, he's sticking with the name, and people who are going to be looking him up on Wiki are people who are watching him perform in AEW, and will look up the name as given: "Claudio Castagnoli." Obviously include a redirect for Cesaro, but there are PLENTY of sources now who refer to him STRICTLY as Claudio now, without referencing his former name. (See: WrestleTalk, Fightful Select, Going In Raw, etc etc.) 2601:1C0:6800:3230:0:0:0:D444 (talk) 06:52, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
i agree with the name change. just throw in a redirect when people search for cesaro MasterOfPuppets2022 (talk) 13:52, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
Support:His real name is Claudio Castagnoli and he wrestled under that ring name for ROH and various other Independent Promotions for a decade before joining WWE Darklord86 (talk) 14:15, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
Agree I believe we should change his name as despite his destingushed career in WWE, he had a notable career under his real name in the American and European independents even winning the PWG World Championships. Now that he has moved to AEW and he has opted to use real name (I.E. Bryan Danielson to Daniel Bryan and back to BD.) my soulution is to wait until January 2023 before making any big decisions.
Cheers! DeepPurpleMule (talk) 02:58, 30 July 2022 (UTC)
- Support. Like Bryan Danielson, Claudio Castagnoli had a noteworthy career wrestling under his real name before he joined the WWE. The renaming of the Matt Cardona article from Zack Ryder set an important precedent too, especially as Cardona was virtually unknown before he debuted in the main WWE rosters. That is clearly not the case with Castagnoli. The only plausible reason to oppose this name change is if we know for certain that he is going back to the WWE, which is unlikely to happen for the foreseeable future. Haleth (talk) 13:36, 30 July 2022 (UTC)
- Change vote to Support. After 1 month, the new name has been established by reliable sources. Working in AEW with 1 million of audience, winning a world title... --HHH Pedrigree (talk) 12:14, 31 July 2022 (UTC)
